The Coffman Review
Looking for an easy dinner before a moonlight hike we ventured over to The Red Pepper Deli, Cafe & Catering. They are part of Madison’s “Red” family of businesses, offering hot and cold sandwiches, soups, salads, and wraps.
We love The Red Pepperoni pizza parlor across the street, so we had high hopes for the deli. Thankfully we weren’t disappointed.
The woman behind the counter was quite friendly and upbeat, giving us recommendations and guiding us through their menu and options. After a few minutes we locked in our order.
Half a Venetian Veggie Panini with Tomato Artichoke Soup
Half a Steak Grinder with Chili
Meals came with a bag of chips and a pickle spear.
Both sandwiches and soups were solid, hitting the middle ground of “not too much, not too little”. It’s hard to beat hot bread, melty cheese, and fresh ingredients. The soups were still giving off steam as we finished.
I’m glad we stopped and I look forward to getting lunch here when we bring the kids next time.

The food here is incredibly fresh and tastes amazing! The sandwich was delicious and very well made! All very fresh produce. I would highly suggest getting a cup of their chili as a side or even as your meal. I’m a HUGE chili fan and I can easily say that was the best chili I have ever gotten from a food place! Will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you Red Pepper Deli for the outstanding food!!

Easily one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. Great atmosphere, great service, and great food. Definitely worth a stop when in Madison!

Very nice. Pasta is good and so is the Italian sandwich. And they give you chips and a pickle with it.

I’ll start off with the good. I got a piece of the lemon white chocolate cheesecake on a whim and it was absolutely delicious. First bite it was a little tart, but after that I was sold. Next comes my sandwich of the southwest turkey I did not like the hoagie bun. It was hard and dense. There wasn’t enough of the southwest cream cheese on it for me really I could’ve done a thick slab of the southwest cream cheese on the bottom and I would like the same amount on top bun as well. The potato salad is a dill, potato salad and for me it didn’t have much flavor, but it was homemade and I did appreciate that I thought the value for what you paid was good the sandwiches are a nice size. The sides are really nice size compared to what you get at a lot of other deli shops and the cheesecake was a good size piece as well. Overall, it was a good lunch

Late Saturday supper. Was busy but no wait to be seated. Ordered a personal pizza for a child, and then ordered a build your own pizza…went with the alfredo sauce, added green peppers, spinach, mushrooms, onions, and roasted tomato. Tasted great. For the kids pizza, tried the pepperoni, however it was different than she is used to and said it was spicey…just for other parents to be aware if their children don’t like spicey food.

We were so impressed with the food and service at this restaurant. Rachel was fantastic and made perfect recommendations. When we got close to the end of our meal, I saw Tracy scanning room for anyone who needed something. She came over with two size boxes so we could choose which one we prefer. Great job! We will be back.

Red Pepper catering takes care of a lot of the lunch meetings at my workplace. They cater to Carrollton, KY often for other surrounding businesses as well. They always do a great job! The owners and staff are both friendly and have great customer service. John and the crew have saved the day for me one-too-many times when a last minute meeting has come up. We are so appreciative of this business!
